The Hilbert--Smith conjecture for three-manifolds
John Pardon
We show that every locally compact group which acts faithfully on a connected three-manifold is a Lie group. By known reductions, it suffices to show that there is no faithful acti…
Central limit theorems for uniform model random polygons
John Pardon
We show how a central limit theorem for Poisson model random polygons implies a central limit theorem for uniform model random polygons. To prove this implication, it suffices to s…
The link concordance invariant from Lee homology
John Pardon
We use the knot homology of Khovanov and Lee to construct link concordance invariants generalizing the Rasmussen -invariant of knots. The relevant invariant for a link is a filt…
Algebraic varieties with semialgebraic universal cover
János Kollár, John Pardon
We study projective varieties whose universal cover is biholomorphic to a semialgebraic open subset of a projective variety.
